The Japanese manufacturer announced structural updates for the sixth generation of its model entering the national market. The 2027 version of the motorcycle arrives at dealerships with profound changes to the mechanics and visual identity. The automaker’s main focus was on driver safety during urban travel. The vehicle now incorporates the combined braking system as standard and abandons historical components.
The modifications aim to directly serve the public who use transport as a daily work tool. A quarter of buyers purchase the model specifically to operate in the app delivery sector. The company seeks to reduce accident rates involving self-employed professionals on public roads. The strategy is part of the brand’s global plan to increase protection in low-displacement vehicles.
Right pedal Fim and new braking dynamics
The most radical change to riding involves the complete removal of the rear brake pedal. Mechanical equipment was traditionally positioned on the right side of the lower structure. Agora, the activation occurs exclusively by the motorcyclist’s hands. The left lever assumes the vital function of distributing stopping force between the two axles of the motorcycle.
The mechanism acts simultaneously on the front and rear wheels. The pilot pulls the left lever and the system automatically balances the pressure. The technology prevents sudden tire locking during emergency braking in heavy traffic. The feature considerably reduces the risk of skidding on wet asphalt or roads with uneven paving.
Profissionais who tested the vehicle on the manufacturer’s track reported a mandatory initial learning curve. The mechanical habit of reaching for the right pedal with the foot causes strangeness during the first kilometers driven. Alguns drivers even reflexively applied the left brake when trying to change gears. Motor adaptation occurs quickly after a few laps around the circuit, making driving natural.
Mudanças aesthetics and command standardization
The new generation design abandons the traditional steel spoked rims. The automaker chose to equip the model with light alloy wheels from the factory. The replacement provides a fuller and more modern visual aspect for the urban motorcycle. The component also offers greater resistance against impacts on potholes and facilitates routine tire maintenance.
The reintroduction of the left lever rescues a part that had disappeared in the 2025 update. The previous model marked the arrival of the semi-automatic transmission and the consequent elimination of the manual clutch. The lever now returns with a purpose entirely focused on safety. The configuration brings the vehicle’s operation closer to the standard adopted in other sales successes from the Japanese manufacturer.
Factory upgrades alter the rider’s ergonomic relationship with the machine. Key highlights of the engineering project include:
- Sistema combined braking system with automatic force distribution between the axles.
- Alloy Rodas replacing the old metal spoke set.
- Ausência definitive brake pedal for the right foot.
- Left Manete dedicated exclusively to the safe stopping of the vehicle.
- Possibilidade installation of USB-C port on the front panel.
The standardization of hand controls simplifies the transition of users between different categories of motorcycles. A motorcyclist accustomed to the Biz model will find the same operating logic in the new release. Familiarity with the controls reduces the brain’s reaction time in situations of imminent danger on the streets.
Optional Acessório requires dealer installation
Connectivity gained space in the catalog of additional items on the basic motorcycle. Owners can request the inclusion of a USB-C port directly on the instrument panel. The equipment allows the continuous charging of smartphones and GPS devices while traveling. The electrical resource meets an old and constant demand from digital platform couriers.
The manufacturer has established strict commercial rules for component assembly. The accessory costs R$500 and must be installed at an authorized dealer network. The technical requirement prevents short circuits and severe damage to the motorcycle’s electrical system. Failure to comply with this rule results in the immediate loss of the three-year warranty offered by the brand to the consumer.
Commercial Desempenho and zero accident target
The model maintains an isolated leadership position in the ranking of national license plates in its category. The official balance sheet for the first quarter of 2026 recorded 61,358 units sold throughout Brazil. The significant sales volume is second only to two other motorcycles from the same manufacturer. The CG line leads the general market with 121,791 registrations, followed by Biz with 67,461 deliveries in the same period analyzed.
The economic impact of the vehicle directly reflects the income generation of thousands of families. Mais of 15 thousand units sold in the first months of the year were intended for strictly professional use. The self-employed worker sees the model as a robust tool with low periodic maintenance costs. Fuel economy continues to be the main financial attraction for this specific consumer profile.
The introduction of braking technologies in entry-level models is part of a strict corporate guideline. The automaker has set the year 2050 as a deadline to eliminate the number of fatalities involving its products around the world. The inclusion of the combined system represents a practical step within this long-term strategy. The automotive sector projects the future expansion of anti-lock brakes for the entire national low-displacement fleet in the coming years.
